二人在回家路上，連簡單交談都無法維繫，將秋語蘭送至家門，何雲軒訝異於熟悉的身影出現在她家客廳。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdq5GBMZgqC
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaVfPbPYIO
「伯母。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFvM9bOEgS
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ElAFevioi
「娘，你為何在這裡？」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ZssDYFl6
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3jCY5bkGc
「二位回來了，相處怎麼樣？」呂青芳將兒子拉到一旁，見詢問無果，將矛頭指向約會的另一位：「阿語，今天可有趣？」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08gao6TCLx
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77ETWSrS9Y
秋語蘭支支吾吾地一時半刻也組織不出一句完整的語句。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkCh5f1mNxr
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjrfKJx75w
「娘你別逼她。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYkXgO3Wip
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfkkjN1Tvc
「好好好，我告知你們好消息，下星期二是良辰吉日，你倆在那日成親，我與阿語家人談成了。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Mb0SqHear
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVRanTdz05u
二人皆將震驚溢於言表，但二人後續得情緒截然不同，何雲軒的情緒較為羞澀與不解，秋語蘭則是嫌棄與憤怒。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qZ4LIyJYY
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoypCej94I
「我們根本還未好好認識彼此。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpMhowMwtd
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaQSr61uOow
「成親後有大半輩子供你倆認識，我跟你爹當初也是如此。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWFpncnVAc
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxVPWulxfe
何雲軒看向身旁的人，她眼神銳利，抿著嘴雙手握拳，顯然對於突如其來的消息無法認可，何雲軒想再說，卻被呂青芳帶走：「我們先離去，下回見。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNGOKaDBaN
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWWM7iqMf15
秋語蘭對著擦身而過的母子頷首示意，面目可憎地走向方才未開口的招弟：「為何隨意決定我的婚事。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DAnbyp2zH
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfX0zADqO2Z
「有何不妥？雲軒無論哪項都無可挑剔。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIfAZyIjLM
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zOfUGGeLG
「但我不愛他。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1rz2Sfnwpw
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxCxegBRSk
「成親看重的不是愛，傻孩子。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgjKamNvY3
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsVjfu7nRj
不等秋語蘭反駁，招弟走進房間拿出斑斕的衣物，秋語蘭一眼就明瞭是什麼，秋語蘭語氣仍壓抑著情緒：「還給我。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnavhyEGU6
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwskWxQVOX
「這就是阻礙你無法接受這樁婚事的最大主因，我幫你斷了念想。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Cae9KgEIT
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs92fmMeO8R
招弟取出剪刀不等秋語蘭反應，便將衣裳剪破不只一處，後者心急如焚每一刀都如同劃在自身，情緒已無從壓抑：「不要！」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw042jKw0FC
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡets7d122HV
劇烈的吵鬧聲驚醒家人，大家都來到客廳，秋國盛見此景象率先開口：「阿語，跟娘說話是這樣的嗎？」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSslf3By0Td
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQT0LiPreS
秋語蘭未回嘴，盯著招弟手中的衣裳，秋國盛敏銳地發現，伸手想接過它：「別這樣。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZnY3LBbTR
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYpVk9BPwk
「下個星期嫁人，還掛念別人像話嗎？」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IgUf6TY5K
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTZ8R4rIpx
秋國盛瞳孔收縮，瞪向招弟：「何時說好的？」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioRLnSCBjx
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT8C4GZLPq
「方才與青芳講定的。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqK5GxkDIE
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJcYtDhQXQ
「你真是…成親不可隨意決定。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nOasBQBSR
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1bVaWBRe6
「你不也覺得雲軒是好的選擇嗎？他爹身為村長，都同意這婚事，繁文縟節也就不用在意。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1ZWTUETLh
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V9HZHgMkX
「也該他倆相處的空間。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcan5mG6F6I
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDdWAVbue5
「我倆當初也是，還是走到這。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvazHl6Kfpt
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7dlY8dpYn
秋國盛啞口無言，撇了眼秋語蘭，晶瑩剔透的眼珠被淚水沖刷，秋國盛本想開口，又看向招弟便作罷。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqASMQwQ5KO

天空烏雲壟罩，將烈陽隱匿，空氣冷冽，村里人聲鼎沸，村長長子娶妻，眾人皆聚集在何雲軒家，連日本軍官都來此湊熱鬧。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw96UzDI8tX
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoU41lyfSR9
「發生什麼？」日本軍官詢問著身旁的翻譯， 翻譯立即向他解釋來由，日本軍官覺得有趣，便帶領手下前往。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b6EntP0QV
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlWbbeaVxU
秋語蘭一襲鮮紅色嫁衣坐在自家客廳雙眉緊蹙並且閉著眼，任由旁人在她臉上塗抹，家裡父母親忙進忙出，此時，爆竹聲由彼處飄來。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrYqzmHWIG
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdGOSnQx2U
「快！他們已經快到了。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW8kIAvOoqi
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5QAVZANUU
招弟的聲音在秋語蘭旁邊響起，她能感受到在臉上塗抹的速率與力度有所改變。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVWCylCSWW
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSE8Sk1ISj
何雲軒一行人浩浩蕩蕩地來到秋語蘭家，何雲軒駕白馬、持繡球，穿著一襲紅裝，下馬，直至家門口，遞出紅包。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjASjJRiBjf
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzOxErWq0Z
經過一番繁文縟節後，喜悅之情溢於言表的新郎，踏進客廳，往已蓋上紅頭紗的新娘走去，只是伸出手，卻未取得回應。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI6AYrDGd9M
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDoJIt4kYI
眾人沈默一會，連鳥兒都慌張地叫出聲，振翅而飛，新娘卻未有動作，似乎世間時間霎時間暫停，讓招弟急得上前，抬起她的手輕柔地放至何雲軒手上。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40UdN8Q87i
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAIhhNRIVa
眾人的時間得以重新流逝，掌聲如雷，何雲軒牽著秋語蘭的手，行至花轎前。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbV24AOwdDr
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNXcEkLtcC
花轎前頭垂至地面，使秋語蘭輕易跨出步伐，在轎子裡坐穩後她示意何雲軒，後者領意，將布簾放下並跨上馬匹，眾人司其職地啟程不同於來時的路線返回。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgPPZY9pGSo
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SHBbASS8N
秋語蘭被帶離自家，爆竹聲不絕於耳，震耳欲聾，世間已無其餘聲響，如此，內心的聲音格外宏亮。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPPnMFdNxI
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICvZWAikxc
成親之於秋語蘭未有任何實感，她從花轎上，拉開布簾，端詳著外面，有人點著炮竹，有人抬著花轎、有人興奮地喊著，唯有她還未入戲。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFsXhFcK0u
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbJmynOMqH
收回視線，秋語蘭陷入回憶的泥沼，與谷翊曾談過成親。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMP7mbRqKmQ
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylZTHhmxYk
成親時的樣子，兩人身著嫁衣的般配，喜宴旁應搭個戲台讓穿著婚服的谷翊上台演出，諸如此類，如今淪為笑話。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvceSPG02oN
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vNGmFCNOf
「他甚至不喜愛看戲。」爆竹聲毫不留情地吞噬秋語蘭的話，未留下任何痕跡，秋語蘭毫不在意地笑著。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJn1ms4hN5Q
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxceqNFsvy
不久，花轎不再向前，秋語蘭感受到花轎傾斜，順勢邁開雙腿，撩開遮幕。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhipzLAj6v
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2cCbWaMFV
「下雪了。」稚嫩地聲音在人群中響起，引得眾人紛紛仰頭，二位新人也無一倖免。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjEuSnWJx9
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAG4Tr12ME
雪花緩降，落在血紅色嫁衣上，格外刺眼，也襯托著二人的婚禮。何雲軒望向身旁的秋語蘭，揣測著她心中的念想。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoAy0XZjOL
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUmRCWSvrm
家門面前擺放無數的禮品，秋語蘭霎時間獲取實感，眼前的住所既熟悉又陌生，已然注定為往後餘生的住所，淚水奪眶而出，身子也止不住地抽動。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMpA6744kd
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34sNmuKG7L
「不許哭，成親不許哭。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKqUWNiq9U
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwItUQGiGyl
招弟喝止，她仍啜泣著，聽聞便想強忍淚水仰起頭，無數情緒推波助瀾下，似氾濫成災的河流無從阻止。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡodBstS4udv
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vEMKrO89j
「繼續，別誤了時辰。」248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlUaAGA6BP
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo2TmgdcJp
眾人見新娘哭停下動作，招弟出聲催動眾人的腳步，引導二位新人向前走。248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tCzClXwXJ
248Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOd866w32c
走進家門，何雲軒爹娘端坐在右側，家中四處能見紅色布置，擺放在正中的神桌，何家列祖列宗見證著此次婚姻，秋語蘭對祂們只覺陌生且不解，二人一同轉身，雙膝著地，聞禮生高聲叫喊：「一拜天地。」
